It isn't just about his dismal/embarrassing performance today! Did you actually watch him play last season? If you did, then please enlighten me with some games he played well in? I'm waiting with abated breath 😂 I perfectly understand why fans aren't enthusiastic about him. What I don't understand is making that argument using a childishly edited video of a meaningless match where he's just getting minutes in his legs. It just makes your argument look weak.
sheffield_fox Posted 31 July 2021 Posted 31 July 2021 All the harshest criticism on here is spot on. He should be nowhere near the team and if anyone is stupid enough to buy him then we should bite their hand off. I get the impression he'd be perfectly happy sitting on the bench. He should have pushed on since arriving but he's gone backwards. 1

STUHILL Posted 31 July 2021 Posted 31 July 2021 Wow, that highlight reel is pretty atrocious, whether rusty or not If he is starting games for us this season, then I will be concerned. Needs to be 3rd choice as a no.10, behind Maddison and possibly even Praet would offer more there than Perez. I've got no strong dislike or agenda against him, I just don't think he is very good.
Ric Flair Posted 31 July 2021 Posted 31 July 2021 I'd happily play League Two roulette here with Ayo. Stick 24 League Two right wingers in a hat and Perez. Shake it up and take whichever one we get, if we get Ayo again then best of 3. 4

But you would have to be an absolute simpleton to vindicate your bias against him using a rusty performance in a pre-season friendly which is his first game back. The problem with that statement is that it was Barnes' first game back as well, but after a long layoff. I don't despise Perez as some on here seem to, but he does appear to be the weakest link in what the line ups today suggest is our almost first choice 11.
roblcfc84 Posted 31 July 2021 Posted 31 July 2021 Defending Perez, because it was a ‘meaningless friendly’ is pretty weak. Ok it’s largely about match fitness, but it’s also about staking a claim and I saw 4 or 5 players do that post 60 minutes. He simply is not good enough. What we saw today was exactly the same as we’ve been seeing for two seasons - wants too much time on ball, easily tackled, not strong enough and not quick enough. I would say nearly every time he received the ball, he lost it. He offers absolutely nothing at all. I don’t say that with any pleasure, I support everyone who wears the shirt, and I’ve defended some pretty average players. But enough is enough, honestly I’m amazed BR still gives him any opportunities. Ok, he’s often been played out of position but even when he’s played centrally he’s done very little.

We can’t go another season relying on this clown. Should’ve posted this instead of his ‘look how hard I’m working in pre-season’ montage on insta. Im as harsh a critic of Perez as a player as anyone, but posting that on the club's twitter page is a disgrace. 5

lcfc sheff Posted 31 July 2021 Posted 31 July 2021 By all means call him shit on here, it’s a fans forum fair enough. But tweeting him personally is ****ing weird, why would you want to go out your way to do that with your day? 2
Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot Posted 31 July 2021 Posted 31 July 2021 You'd hope he won't be near the 11 when everyone is fit, he's not terrible but he doesn't shine in any department either, often anonymous and hasn't seemed to work out for him here. Think you'd be happy to get 8-12m for him and move him on and upgrade.
Claridge Posted 31 July 2021 Posted 31 July 2021 Was quite excited when we signed him, now I feel that he is not far off useless

I’ve been accused twice of contents of a video I didn’t make and now whatever this post above is? To be clear, @honeybradgermade a comment about the Twitter poster putting that video on the main lcfc Twitter handle. Ok, write back your issue to him directly. Once and for all, he’s no good for us and the video clearly highlights that. Yes, it’s pre-season, but that highlight reel could be any of the games from the season. He’s not good enough and calling that out doesn’t make you less of a fan than any other. Sorry for wanting the best for my club.
The_77 Posted 1 August 2021 Posted 1 August 2021 As much as every thread is the Ayoze Perez thread right now, there’s no need for this one until there’s actually some sort of transfer link.
Ginger_Filbert Posted 1 August 2021 Posted 1 August 2021 I think Rodgers saying we don’t have and endless pot of money (obviously we know this anyway) is his way of saying, ‘look I know Perez isn’t good enough but you’re going to have to deal with it because we can’t afford to replace him’

It always makes me laugh when Pep says he can't afford a player, yet they then go and splash out record fees on several players. It's all a kidology game.

Nickbluefox Posted 1 August 2021 Posted 1 August 2021 I was talking to a Newcastle fan the other day and said they could have Perez back for free. He laughed and said no thanks! Says it all really!!!!

That’s not his fault of course, but seems like a criminal waste of precious resources with hindsight. The club should really examine carefully the process that led to that decision as an example of what to avoid in future. 1
Popular Post Ric Flair Posted 1 August 2021 Popular Post Posted 1 August 2021 He's definitely getting worse. He had flashes of brilliance in the first season, he was horrifying last season. I'm genuinely scared to what depths he can take it this season. 8
